Compression of events
Elder Maxwell ended a GC address with these words, I believe that this is the time he spoke of:
"Now, my brethren, “these are [your] days” (Hel. 7:9) in the history of the Church. Mark well what kind of days they will be, days when, with special visibility, the Lord will “make bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations.” (D&C 133:3.) God will also “hasten” His work. (D&C 88:73.) He will also “shorten” the last days “for the elect’s sake”; hence, there will be a compression of events. (Matt. 24:22; JS—M 1:20.) Furthermore, “all things shall be in commotion.” (D&C 88:91.) Only those in the process of becoming the men and women of Christ will be able to keep their spiritual balance. Brethren, may we “walk by faith,” and, if necessary, even on our knees!"

Re: Compression of events
Just sent my request to join the group...thanks! Looks interesting. BTW...did anyone else notice the preparedness theme at the Women's Session of GC on Saturday? The sisters' talks, at least, seemed to have a particular urgency.LDSguy wrote:excellent talk and post Gideon.
